In Wabash Township on October 17, 1876, a Hester A. Barton married William Zentmyer. This couple was brother and sister of Hamilton Barton and Matilda Zentmyer as researched by Melissa Hennigar Parrish.

Melissa Hennigar Parrish:
Hester Barton and Sanford Hamilton Barton were brother and sister.
"Hester's death certificate names her parents as John Barton and Marta Goss. Census records (after her marriage to William) show her as born in Georgia and the 1880 census gives her parents' birthplace as Georgia also. Working from this I found Hester and her parents in the 1860 Georgia census in Gordon County, Oothcalooga township (P.O. Calhoun, p. 6). The make up of the family was this:
John W. Barton, age 30, born in South Carolina. Occupation - farm laborer.
Martha A. Barton, age 30, born in Georgia. Occupation - domestic. [This is probably an census error for Martha A. Barton's age.)
Sarah E. Barton, age 10, born Georgia
Malinda C. Barton, age 7, born Georgia
Sanford H. Barton, age 6, born Georgia
Mary A. Barton, age 3, born Georgia
Martha M. Barton, age 2, born Georgia
Hester A. Barton, age 1/12, born Georgia."

"Hester [Barton] appeared in Indiana ... [in] 1870. I found her living near Brookston, Indiana (White Co., Prairie township, p. 262 B. Note that Brookston is just north of Battleground.) She is listed in the household of William and Malinda Robinson, ages 26 and 18.... Malinda is born in Georgia. .... the marriage records prove that this was Malinda Barton Robinson, Hester's sister. Malinda Barton married William Robinson on January 13, 1870 in Tippecanoe Co., Indiana."
